The commencement of a lie is the omission of the truth
no child is born a lier, they are crafted, molded, fed
some made better than others
Wide-eyed lad expecting truth
perplexed by a sudden change
He knows instinctively he has heard a lie
he is now, asked to tell it truth
and thus the liar emerges
To insist he tells the truth at all times
is a breach of trust
for when he tells the truth
he is scolded and asked to change his words
to fit a mold, a pattern, a lifestyle
To demand his truth at all times is damaging
for his truth becomes a lie when convenient
and his lies are stuck to his character
To never tell a lie bears no truth
this is the biggest of follies
A merciful lie has no color
But a lie, when allowed to stand, will become truth!
